In general, in Linux, this is not true. The PHY inserts both
delays. Yes, you can have the MAC insert the delay, but it then means
the MAC needs to modify phy-mode to indicate it has inserted the
delay, changing rgmii-id to rmgmii-rxid when it calls
phy_connect_*(). And few MAC drivers get this correct. So i would
avoid this. Default to 1950. And if there is a device which needs a
fine tune, it can use 2100, or 2250 in its DTS file.
